Starlink: Battle for Atlas

Starlink: Battle for Atlas for SWITCH, XONE and PS4 is an action game based on spaceship models, developed by Ubisoft.

Plot

The game takes place in the distant Atlas planetary system, which is filled with alien worlds. This part of the galaxy is on the brink of destruction due to the invasion of the machines known as the Forgotten Legion. Our job is to stop the machines and defeat their leader, Grax.

Mechanics

Starlink: Battle for Atlas for SWITCH, XONE and PS4 is an action game where we control our own, self-made space ship. We use it to fight not only in space, but also in the high atmosphere of many planets.

The game’s world is open and dynamic and changes under the influence of both the player and the Forgotten Legion’s (A.I.) decisions. If we do not pay enough attention to what’s going on, the machines will quickly take over the entire system.

What makes Starlink: Battle for Atlas a unique game is the fact that it is integrated with physical spaceship models that are sold separately. Here, the system is a bit more complicated than in other similar productions. Spaceship models are modular, which allows us to manually change their parts and pilots. These changes are instantly realized in the virtual world so the game combines the virtual and actual realities.

Starlink: Battle for Atlas offers many various missions during which we have complete tactical freedom. It encourages us to experiment with models’ configurations in order to create spaceships suitable for all kinds of tasks.

Technical Aspects

Starlink: Battle for Atlas for SWITCH, XONE and PS4 uses Snowdrop game engine (the same as The Division), making its visuals really attractive and easy on the eyes.
